  • holding that the factors “do not lend themselves to a balancing act,” but “[c]ertain of the factors, standing alone, will themselves justify relief”
  • finding that Rule 61(i)(3)(A)’s cause standard is higher than the cause standard governing a pre-sentence Rule 32(d) motion to withdraw a plea
  • holding that although the trial court’s failure to read the charge to the defendant, advise him of the elements of the charge, or ask whether his counsel had done so was a defect in the plea, it would not on its own support a motion to withdraw the plea
